Telephone country codes never begin with zero.

Country code +86, dialed as 00 86 from many places, is the People's Republic of China. Area codes beginning with +86 2 have one more digit, which is necessary to identify the city:

  • +86 20 = Guangzhou
  • +86 21 = Shanghai
  • +86 22 = Tianjin
  • +86 23 = Chongqing
  • +86 24 = Shenyang
  • +86 25 = Nanjing
  • +86 27 = Wuhan
  • +86 28 = Chengdu
  • +86 29 = Xi'an

Country code +62, dialed as 008 62 from many places, is Indonesia.

To avoid confusion, it is best to write an international telephone number in correct international format, beginning with the plus symbol and the correct telephone country code (e.g., +86 for China or +62 for Indonesia), omitting any dialing prefix.

(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)
